    More than just a consolation band for Lush lovers, Miki Berenyi's welcome voice is as matter-of-fact as ever, with KJ "Moose" McKillock (her partner in music and life) working a surf-to-spaghetti-western guitar penchant, Modern English's Mick Conroy handling bass duties, and former Elastica drummer Justin Welch pounding it home.

    This is a gem of an album - you won't want to skip one track. A band far greater than the sum of its four parts. Recommended

    You could break your teeth on their solid pop structures, especially on Hated By The Powers That Be, but there's a volatility in these touch-paper guitars and flammable vocals, that ensures Brickbat is never straightforward. [May 2019, p.115]

    Brickbat is a worthy addition to the growing canon of bands and performers addressing the powers that be.
